Biography

Fremont, Mich. | Master of Management
Undergraduate Degree: Communication & Psychology

Lillian Houtteman brings leadership, experience, and a strong connection to the Aquinas community. A three-time All-Academic Team honoree (2023–25) and 2025 WHAC Champion of Character recipient, Houtteman exemplifies the balance of academic excellence and athletic integrity. Her athletic background also includes cross country and soccer before continuing her career with AQ Cheer.

She chose Aquinas for its small student-to-professor ratio and the opportunity to pursue both her academic and athletic goals. Now continuing her journey as a graduate student and graduate assistant, Houtteman remains deeply immersed in the Aquinas athletic community while competing on the cheer and stunt teams. Her leadership presence and commitment to character-driven success embody the values of the program.

A fun fact: she loves sunflowers and grew up showing livestock at local fairs — roots that reflect her work ethic and appreciation for community.
